[Music]

the nature of kalimantan home to one of

the world's primate producing the most

livestock A faite Home of cabine

monkey surrounded with mangrove and

reparan areas cim manan's nature becomes

a vage sport for one of the primate

species they can only be found in the

island of

[Music]

kalimantan this primate would spend most

of their day on three

[Music]

tops consuming three lives freely and

peacefully

this is Kim manan's anomic primate

Bantan of the long nose proos is monkey

[Music]

the island of kalimantan the world's

third largest island after Greenland in

[Music]

babua covered with green and lost

tropical

forest kalimantan becomes the home for

large variety of plants and animals of

the atis

[Applause]

group where the number of living

primates are dominant especially large

species of monkeys

[Music]

Bantan or perosis monkey is one of the

animals that lives along river banks

deltas and also small

islands that is located less than 200 m

above sea

levels as its main

habitat with the change of time the

leaves of Bantan key are in jipper

D Forest land being changed into

residential

areas and also turned into

farming Plantation signed and other

economic related

activities has caused the population of

Bantan significantly

[Music]

decreasing in 2000 data of the iucn our

International Union for conservation of

Nature and natural resources released

that Bantan is classified into the

endangered category

[Music]

not only that bandan is also enlisted in

appendices one of cities or the

convention on International threat in

endangered species of wild FAA and

Flora which means it is illegal to treat

the species

not only having to face land

changes but Canan also becomes a target

of animal

poachers beloved by freshwater

crocodiles

lasard clouded leopards and snakes

nearly all river banks in kalimantan

acts as a home to Bantan

monkeys but the decreasing population of

this animal makes their presence in the

wild extremely

[Music]

rare EXA in conservation sites like the

gong palong National Park in West

kalimantan

this park is about 90,000 hectares

making it one of the best habitat for

bant

monkeys the population of Bantan can be

found in three locations

B Barat singit and rant panang river

banks and lost at the mangr ecosystem in

melum

River it's not difficult to

differentiate between Bantan and other

primates Bantan has a lighter brown

color mix with a slight red and other

variations of color spoted on some of

their body

[Music]

parts very contrast when we see them

relaxing behind three

[Music]

lives Bantan has a distinctive figure

which is its long nose that looks like

an elephant trun or a cocon and the size

passes the lip

[Music]

line that's why Bantan is called nasalis

lavarus in Latin nasalis means nose and

lavarus means

larva but only males has this unique

nose shape where it actually functions

as a way to attract female Bantan during

the meing

season as for female Bantan they have a

shorter nose than the

males in a glance the facial form of

Bantan is different than other

primates the face is not covered with

[Music]

hair

for for

[Music]

[Music]

Bantan has a big siiz stomach the big

stomach is because it contains a large

amount of gas a result of fermentation

of young leaves that they consume leaves

they eat would be stored at Pockets

inside Bantan stomachs that contains

digestive bacteria called cellulosa

[Music]

there are 21 types of plants that Bantan

eat such as putat or sea potion and

rangas trees where they usually sleep on

J

[Music]

plants that Bantan monkey eats can be

found in three type of forest mangr

trees are the middle Zone with the white

mangr tree are isaora

epic plain forest with a hairy tier

globosa

type pitw Forest Arium trees and also

Genoa mlana three for

Bantan would do these activities at

daytime active starting from sunrise to

down for about 13 hours Bantan monkey

would actively walk around play seek

food and take naps during the

[Music]

day taking shade from the

sunlight other dangers that these are

burial are animals that lives on top of

trees is Forest

deforestation by humans for the purpose

of many production

activities and also the constructions of

residential

areas such human activities have forced

the habitat of bandan to become smaller

and smaller in

[Music]

size not only that such chains in

function of forest lands also becomes

major

[Music]

contributor to the world's climate

change

[Music]

w

[Music]

[Music]

Bantan are in great danger in a world

where everything evolves extremely fast

threats to the population of Bantan

monkey comes from all

angles natural predator

Chang in function of land long river

banks and also forest

[Music]

fires damage throughs their natural

habitat strongly Eva the leaves of

Bantan especially relating to the stock

of food and also places for

shelter having to face great danger po

population of Bantan sharply declining

each

year many have been done to put a stop

to the decreasing population of Bantan

[Music]

mangi Indonesia through the ministry of

Forestry and environment issued a law to

Safe the existence and protection

towards Bantan monkeys in 2018

[Music]

R yeah

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

following up on the Protection Law

monitoring and collecting data on the

number of population of Bantan are done

and for the data to be analyzed AC

according to location where they live

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

this is conducted periodically by G

palong National Park Conservation Center

in West

[Music]

kalimantan preventive measures educating

local intensively are things that are

being done however conflict between

Bantan mongke and us as people have

never been recorded did

[Music]

IND

together with locals living near the

conservation

area under the masarat Mitra bhood

group will track every inch of gum

palong National Park to make

sure no activ activities are taking

place that could jeopardize forest

ecosystem including the habitat of

Bantan

[Applause]

land

[Music]

[Music]

a number of strategies are being made to

preserve the remaining population of

Bantan information relating to

population and group structure to the

[Music]

habitat becomes a significant element

that all parties must be aware

of monitoring on the population of

bandan is done to prevent the population

from dropping

including protection towards the

habitat so that they no longer suffer

due to Forest

[Music]

degradation Bantan monkey now becomes an

animal that many would help

protect becoming a species that people

are proud

of especially the people of

kalimantan the unique features of Bantan

is also used as an

icon for conservation and

tourism riparian Forest is extremely

important for the

living f vegetation that grows along the

riverbank and have

morphological physiological features and

reproduction that adapts to the

[Music]

Wetland plans of repairing Forest are

capable to adapt to

floods physical abrasion and broken tree

trunk due to

[Applause]

flly often times we forget that banton's

existence strongly affected by climate

[Music]

change the change in temperature and

weather patterns in the long

term du the greenhouse Evac are factors

that led to the sharp decline of Bantan

population

the tropical climate that fits for

Bantan to live in is slowly changing it

evects health reles

regenerate and the sifting process for

it the grow would be

disrupted this all for sure would Evac

Ban's response when finding food to

eat we now only focus on how climate

change EVS the leaves of us is

human but in

reality it EVS more towards animals in

the wild especially Bantan

monkeys this primate species has great

ecological role to ATL's ecosystem and

mangr

[Music]

areas and also control the for S V

culture are the practice to control the

growth

composition and quality of

forest reparan vegetation that can be

found abundant in the island of

kalimantan has significant

role in terms of biologically

riparian vegetation acts as a filter of

soil

materials and minerals stored in

water having the ability to spread trees

to grow and preserve the Regeneration

process of vegetation

within reparent lens also act as food

for wild

animals therefore

the existence of Bantan helps create a

healthy

ecosystem that could support people's
